I love how this series has basically become a podcast where they talk about anything while they play videogames in the background. I find it more interesting than only talking about the game they're playing.

I love how they get off topic and the conversations they have that have absolutely nothing to do with the game are so much more entertaining.

The Capcom Beat Em Up Bundle is so much fun.

Man, James has great memory, remembering the Ninja Gaiden song.

*I'm in tears laughing at that Looney tunes interruption*

The Looney Tunes thing had me in near tears. That was absolutely hilarious.

About that "SHTROM" character: In german, "strom" is electricity so I guess that was what they were aiming for.

When you two start cracking up, it’s contagious lol. I’m over here laughing my ass off with you guys🤣

The fans never forgot Captain Commando.

You should have ended this video with: "That's all folks!"

lmao Bugs Bunny in "the case of the ruined Ikari Warriors playthrough"

I never played the original games, I mostly remember Captain Commando through Marvel vs Capcom

I was born 1996 and I definitely watched looney tunes as a child. I remember seeing it on Cartoon Network in the early 2000’s. The 90’s definitely bled into the 2000’s

I can't express how fucking hilarious the looney tunes part was, I was laughing my ass off and that's why I have been watching James and Mike Mondays for so long, I love when you are laughing so hard you can't even play anymore. You're giving us the joy of playing with friends to a whole generation secluded because of the pandemic. Thank you so much James and Mike!

pretty sure Ryu from Ninja Gaiden is not the one from Street Fighter - but he is the same Ryu in the Dead or Alive games - also by Tecmo.

I think “The Toys that Made Us” was emulating toy commercial energy. What do other people say?

I was here for the usual “James & Mike Mondays” episode and gameplay nostalgia, but when it quickly turned to the “add Looney Tunes to disrupt kids playing Minecraft” subject, I totally cracked up like these two.😂😂😂 Totally relate, same generation as these guys, and the humor is classic!🤣

We get many Final Fight characters in Street Fighter, but where are the Captain Commando geust fighters? I'm fairly certain all 3 series exist in the same universe.

Captain Commando in the instruction manual looks like a Captain Harlock rip-off.

This was by far the funniest episode yet! The video should just be renamed to How to Introduce People to Looney Tunes!

If we ever get another actual AVGN Video Game we need to have a Level that starts normal but then turns into a 7 Minute Unrelated Cartoon we need to watch before we can continue playing 😆

I love that the character named Mack is armed with knives.

I remember playing this in the arcade as a kid, then going to the local park and pretending I was still in the game with my friends; great video as always James and Mike You guys are an inspiration See you next game

I was born in 92" and bugs bunny and tweety show was my shit.

I actualy love James movie reviews when he is just being himself and 100% honest. The cabinet of Dr Caligari Rocky franchise Alien Franchise Those are some of my favorites he has put out. Dr Caligari is probably my favorite ever, i must have seen that one like 10 times so far, and that one is a very positive review.... Just my 2 cents.

If you know the plot of this game it’s interesting, there is even a Japanese manga that explains even more

I am surprised they didn't make the correlation between "cap"tain "com"ando! I wonder if the name originates from the company or from the character.

Fun fact: In the manual of the US release of Section Z, the protagonist is called Captain Commando.

Man...I loved this game. One of the best beat ‘em ups from back in the day. I never knew as a kid that Captain Commando had anything to do with CAPCOM, and I had always wondered why no sequel to this was ever made.

I used to love the cartoons between like "I. M. Weasel" and "Secret Squirrel" or "Dial M for Monkey."

man, hearing James say "Ryu!" always cracks me up for some reason

Captain Commando was one of my favorite games as a child. I always played as the ninja.

The Looney Tunes discussion was hilarious! xD

We would spend hours trying to play through this at our local amusement park. Man, this was a great game.

Way back as a kid I remember picking up on company isms. Capcom for sure had its own. The “swipe”, the “slide”, the flame etc. The “swipe” you see with SF2 Guile’s Flash Kick, and Strider’s blade swipe. The slide you see with Strider, Dhalsim, Final Fight’s El Gado, even Mega Man, the double lariat was repeated with Haggar and Zangeif.

Someone makes a mod for any video game to randomly show the "jumpscare" of Looney Tunes intro, in the middle of gameplay.

Great Capcom Arcade game!!

Right as they say "they just watch KZfaq and play minecraft " then I realized that's exactly what I Was doing at the moment. I'm young but I still enjoy old old stuff but damn I feel like a child

The guys with the red bandanas and knife def represent the guys from final fight.

That conversation about Looney Tunes @28:38 just made my week! LOL

OMG this guys made me laugh so hard with their looney toons thing

We used to have the arcade of this at the Circle-K down the road from me growing up.

For a 1991 game, the graphic hold up remarkably well.

I love this vid, love seeing what James used to do with his old games and manuals as a kid. Great vid guys, keep them coming!

i hope to see some more capcom games maybe some fighters like darkstalkers or other beat-em-ups.

11:00 oh Snap James - nice. It does sound VERY similar.

Damn I remember playing this at the Burlington Center Mall as a kid. Then we hit Friendly's after for dinner lol...

Just a thanks James and Mike for getting me into retro gaming. My generation was the ending of Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis, and the introduction of the Nintendo 64; though we did own an NES my dad bought back in the day. So many great titles out there from old school consoles that actually interest me more than modern games (mini-movies) that I never got to try. Even the sound of the buttons on retro controllers, particularly NES, is music

"All we need to see is someone flaming", well that does happen a lot in Capcom games, and in more than one context

I'm glad my 6yr old love all the old cartoons I used to watch she's one of coolest nerds I know.

I was hoping Mike would do his world famous Bugs Bunny impression

i like these because you guys are being yourselves. its great. thanks dudes

The difference between James and other youtubers: Avgn, screams and blows shit up because that's part of his character. With other youtuber its: "HEY WHATS UP GUYS BACK WITH ANOTHER VIDEO" (WOOOW SOUND EFFECT, ZOOM IN) (BRUH SOUND EFFECT REPEATEDLY) (EXPLOSION) "YOU GUYS WONT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED" (RANDOM ZOOM TO HANDS AND HAND TRACKING.) Bit of an over exaggeration, but I mean pretty accurate.

"Can I just say Rye-u?" 😂

The Baby Commando is a super genius infant who fights using a robot of his own design. I don't know if they ever explain why or how the baby is a super genius.

One of my all time favorite arcade games. Great to see you all do it...dropped a ton of quarters being the baby

Didn't watch Looney Tunes much. Tom & Jerry was the thing for me.

"Everything sucked till I learned this one simple trick!"

That whole Looney Tunes Minecraft conversation had me giggle so hard xD

such an iconic beat-em up so popular his also in 'marvel vs capcom 2'

James and Mike are such different people. When they play games together, Mike plays to win and James plays just to relax and shoot the shit with a friend. It's kind of amusing to see Mike's reactions in the opening moments of this video. James is waxing nostalgic about his Capcom/Captain Commando memories from childhood and you can tell Mike is getting impatient to just play the damn game.

"theres alot of things that are a shame" 2020 meta commentary

There are so many people on KZfaq that feel like their forcing laughter but whenever it comes from you guys its always genuine and literally infectious not to mention what you're saying is hilarious. 🤣

Anyone else notice the cool shadows underneath every character? Exactly the same for every person and doesn't change shape ever. Once I noticed it I couldn't stop watching them

Red devil unicorn big mans unicorns Sounds legit.

the girls with the electric tuning forks lookin buff af

Seeing you laughing is an absolute delight :)

4:50 Don't forget Resident Evil now. It too is considered flagship, staple series for Capcom.

You should play some GBA games using the Gamecube adapter. I recommend Metroid Zero Mission and WarioWare.

Wow. This was an amazing mental visual roller coaster! Laugh out loud with you guys. ! 😂🤣

I love watching the creative genius flow between you two. Especially James.... I feel like every time I watch james I can physically see his mental finesse flexing ideas and thoughts. He constantly has this idea or vision for something creative.

The best way would be to integrate into the games. You're playing Doom and about to be squashed by a Cyberdemon, when a giant anvil hits the demon, killing it. Doomslayer's bunny, Daisy can then stand up, chew a carrot, and comment, "What a maroon."

Man, how I miss this game. I would love to see him again in a new game.

You maniac, you blew it up! Damn you, damn you all to hell! Btw. Capcom stands for Capsule Computer.

James is the "Big Mans Unicorn"

Hey I appreciated The Maltese Falcon episode! Love your deep dives into curiousities in films too.

James, what is your facial moisturizer secret? You’re absolutely glowing.

I think you guys have just inadvertently invented another KZfaq Poop: random videos being rickrolled by the Looney Tunes theme.

As a kid growing up with Looney Tunes, Animaniacs, Freakazoid, The Tick, TOmmy and Jerry and all that Jazz, I can't agree more. I never noticed the references are gone, as a kid I didn't really get them but rewatching these shows as an adult makes me really appreciate how clever they were sometimes.

7:18 James talks about recurring things in Capcom Games, while in a museum that looks like Cadillacs and Dinosaurs

i just want to hear james talk about anything hes interested in or watch him beat a challenge. doesnt have to be negative. but im from the olden world, so figures i guess.

I'd like to think the baby's Stewie from Family Guy.

I can totally hear Justin saying "RAMBO COMMANDO RAMBO COMMANDO RAMBO COMMANDO"

To answer your question, there was definitely 4 player in the arcade. Some forums stated that the machine had a dip switch swapping from 3 to 4 player, where the coin slot selects which character you are in 4p mode (it also explains why the version on capcom collection 2 for ps2 only had 3p as well). I definitely remember the coin slot selecting your character, but I'm getting a bit of mandela effect going on since I remember the arcade cabinet at our arcade being on two screens, with two sets of controls on each. Can't find any pictures resembling that though, so maybe it was just a fault memory from my gradeschool self, ha ha.

next time try Gainground on sega

yall are so great. Please make that video about the different gaming company tropes you talked about, sounds funny as hell.

That whole Looney Tunes discussion was a much-needed pick-me-up. I was cracking up along with you guys. Thanks, I needed that.

One of the best Capcom beat-'em-ups. It's not as involved as something like AVP, but it's so much fun.

Best "James and Mike" in a while.... big thumbs up :)

i forgot about the mech piloting baby. What a weird pure product of the 90's

20:39 - I mostly watch the J&M Mondays nowadays. I like this authentic feeling of your unscripted interactions.

You guys kept saying that some stuff seemed like it was from Final Fight, but in some timelines Guy is actually a part of the Commando Force, and it was later decided that the city they're in is based on Metro City! I love Capcom continuities.

I want a Jimmy Rolfe vs the punching bag sequel please...

I remembered playing captain commando with my friends I just love it and then play metal slug man it was nostalgic back then

24:59 *I'm in stitches laughing at this!!* 😂😂😂😂

Played this in the arcade as a lad.good times!

I've been obsessively playing this all this week. Good timing for me to see this James.

These hang outs are great.

would be cool if Captain Commando had a new game, i love this game, my main was the Mummy "Mack the Knife"

I used to play the arcade game of Captain Commando. It was pretty fun.
